Venture Deals: Be Smarter Than Your Lawyer and Venture Capitalist

As each new generation of entrepreneurs emerges, there is a renewed interest in how venture capital deals come together. Yet there really is no definitive guide to venture capital deals. Nobody understands this better than authors Brad Feld and Jason Mendelson. For more than seventeen years, they've been involved in hundreds of venture capital financings, and now, with Venture Deals, they share their experiences in this field with you.

Would you consider the audio edition of Venture Deals to be better than the print version?

No. The audio version is great, but due to the nature of the subject it is probably better to have the print version in front of you for a reference. I knew this going into it, so it does not affect my rating or perception of the book.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

My reaction to the book was one of enthusiasm. The book helps clarify many things that an entrepreneur wants to know. It gave perspectives from both sides. It is a book that should have been written years ago.

How Will You Measure Your Life?

In 2010 world-renowned innovation expert Clayton M. Christensen gave a powerful speech to the Harvard Business School's graduating class. Drawing upon his business research, he offered a series of guidelines for finding meaning and happiness in life. He used examples from his own experiences to explain how high achievers can all too often fall into traps that lead to unhappiness. Full of inspiration and wisdom, this book will help students, midcareer professionals, and parents alike forge their own paths to fulfillment.

I would definitely listen to this book again. For those who are wondering about work/life balance and are interested in the case study method, this is an excellent book. Professor Christensen does a great job of communicating his class into book form.
